Ratings & Reviews for Finish Classic 84 -Count Fresh Dishwasher Detergent

My dishwashing go-to

Had these recommended to me by a dishwasher technician several years ago and so far have no reason to ever use anything else again. These tablets don't accumulate scummy buildup in your dishwasher like gels do and thus alleviate any degradation of the door gasket's integrity. I also like that the largest quantity comes loose in a recyclable tub without individual plastic wrappers that can only be trashed. I don't find them to have any scent, which is perfect for my sensitive nose. With a properl...

Perfumed dishes?

I've been using Finish Classic and have been satisfied with the product. While it has a mildly soapy fragrance, that does not linger after the dishwasher has run. My store was out of them, and I purchased Finish Powerball Power instead. The heavy perfume scent was overwhelming when I opened the package. With a houseful of holiday guests, I had to run the full dishwasher, using the product. The odor persisted after the wash cycle. My dishes and utensils retained the odor! I have a Bosch ...

Great product. Great job done.

Been using this Classic for years. Have not needed to upgrade as it does the job every day. No pre-rinsing needed. Don't burn product in the pans. Make sure you don't have anything in front of the dispenser to keep it from opening. Highly recommend.

perfumed garbage

I tried these since the store does have finish classic anymore, the scent was overpowering just opening the bag. Now our dishes smell like perfume and taste bitter. Done with this brand, I'm not wasting any more money on them.

Very poor

Worst tablets we ever tried. Don’t desolve, white residue left over, some dishes left unclean. We will change back to our previous but more expensive brand tablets. Don’t recommend this product

Poor packing

Lid off and broken with 16 tablets destroyed because of it

Great for everything

I read this product is great for cleaning microwaves and stoves--dissolved in some water. It works great. Well, I've had a sluggish drain in my kitchen sink for years. I've tried all of the drain cleaners; they were not effective. I dissolved one of these in a cup of hot water, poured it into drain and let it sit overnight. Seemed to help so I repeated this a second night. Success!!! For the first time since I bought this house, my kitchen drain flows smoothly. WOW! I had even ...

Finish Deshwashing tablets with terrible fragrance

You have got to be kidding me. Do you honestly think people want to eat their nice dinner on plates that smell like cheap perfume. Give me a break. Fire the reject who thought they would get promoted by putting stinky crap on our dishes. Are you people nuts.

Amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These work so well. I was hesitant as I have always used Dawn and never strayed from what I knew. I’m so glad I tried these. They work great and leave my dishes clean with no water spots. I’ll keep using these.

Fragrance is way too much

I have used Finish Powerball Classic for many years. Not realizing that something had changed, I picked up the Finish Powerball Power package. Finish Powerball Power has too much fragrance for use in a small house or apartment. I have to open up the windows to air out the house after using the newer product. I'm going back to the Classic variety as soon as possible.

No Soap Taste

This is the only detergent I can find that doesn’t leave a soapy taste and smell on my dishes. It cleans wonderfully too. I feel this line of dishwasher detergent is getting harder to find. Please keep this line of detergent for people that can taste soap residue left on dishes. I have have this in multiple high end dishwashers.

Great Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher cleaner left out dishes sparkling clean. I love the ease of just tossing a tablet in and turning on the machine. There is never any left over residue on the dishes. I would definitely recommend using this product for your dishes.

Finish Classic Great; Finish Power Pungent Smell

I have been using what is now called Finish Classic for many years with no complaints. I recently bought the Finish Power as I could not find the Classic and assumed it would work great and not make me sick. What a disappointment. The chemical stench in my dishwasher and on my dishes, glasses, utensils etc; is more than anyone in our home can stand. I literally was sickened from the odor. Plastic items retain the odor. We threw it all away. We were able to order the Classic but I am pretty convi...

Awful product, does NOT dissolve all the way

I have used the new packs that are three separate parts in one, Blue, Red, White and they are awful. They do not dissolve all the way. The white powder is left behind. I cut the white pack open and still it did not dissolve all the way. Going to another brand till they get this fixed. Very annoyed.

Finish tablets on siver cutlery

I have used finish products in my dishwasher all my life and have had siver cutlery for 20 years with no problem. Until now... what has happened in the past few months. All my cutlery has changed for the worse and is now yellowing.. the only new variable must be a change in formula from finish... please please recommend how I can get the older product? or which finish product to use? thank you in advance

Works Well but…

…I purchased a package of 76 tabs and will have to throw away more than half of them because they got stuck together in one big glob. Out kitchen is not air conditioned but it hasn’t even been that hot here. It has been humid though. I don’t see any warning on the package about keeping them in a cool dry place. Wish I’d known.

Scent is too strong

The scent is too strong and I do not feel safe using these for my dishes. I unfortunately did not read the reviews and thought I was buying the classic-- a waste of money!

Works great

I was using the competition gel packs but see they’re not septic friendly. I switched over a year ago and they work great for us. Dishes are clean. No residue. No mess.
